Thrissur’s Luxury Housing Market Enters New Era
Rising Demand in Punkunnam and Kuttanellur
Thrissur’s Punkunnam and Kuttanellur areas are becoming hotspots for luxury housing. High-net-worth individuals (HNIs) and non-resident Indians (NRIs) are showing strong interest. Prices here range from ₹2204 to ₹9461 per sq ft, showing their high value in Kerala’s real estate scene.
Key Drivers of the Boom
- Modern Amenities: Gated communities with infinity pools, 24/7 security, and designer landscapes attract people who want the best.
- Smart Home Systems: Solar panel-integrated façades, and IoT-enabled features for lighting, climate control, and security drive tech-savvy investments.
- Strategic Locations: Close to Thrissur Medical College, cultural hubs, and widened road networks enhance liveability.
- Developer Excellence: SOBHA Ltd. projects like SOBHA Lake Edge (Punkunnam) and SOBHA Metropolis (Ollur Road) cement the area’s luxury reputation with sculpted gardens, multipurpose halls, and private docks.
Why Punukunnam and Kuttanellur Stand Out
Punkunnam’s Appeal
Flat markets near Sankarankulangara Temple offer ready-to-occupy villas with elevators, home automation, and solar panel integration. Recent sales include 3BHK apartments priced at ₹69.5 lakh and 4BHK villas at ₹1.87 crore, reflecting strong NRI interest.
Kuttanellur’s Upscale Growth
SOBHA’s Metropolis complex on Ollur Road blends classical designs with Roman-inspired architecture, targeting families seeking walkability near Oushadhi Ayurvedic centers. 4BHK configurations here span 2,841–3,636 sq ft, emphasizing space and heritage.
Price Trends and Future Outlook
| Property Type | Price Range | SQFT Range |
|---|---|---|
| 3BHK Apartments | ₹55–₹220 lakh | 1,177–1,764 sq ft |
| 4BHK Gated Villas | ₹72–₹195 lakh | 1,600–2,000 sq ft |
| Super Luxury Villas | ₹1.87–₹1.99 crore | 2,240–3,633 sq ft |
Thrissur’s cultural revival and expanded infrastructure mean Punkunnam and Kuttanellur will likely keep their status as Kerala’s luxury real estate epicenters. Developers like SOBHA continue innovating, combining Kerala’s temple-inspired architecture with contemporary smart-living solutions to cater to the evolving elite preferences.
